Boasting an impressive first touch, a deceptive turn of pace and strength in possession, Tadic will bolster Heart's attacking stocks during the upcoming campaign, with his clinical finishing ability making him a danger in and around the 18-yard box.

Head Coach John Aloisi revealed his delight at Tadic's signing, saying the former Croatian youth international possesses all the tools required to succeed in the Hyundai A-League.

"Josip's a number nine, holds up the ball well, finds good positions in the box and is a goal scorer. He's a very important signing," Aloisi said.

"Having won three titles on the bounce during his time at Dinamo Zagreb alongside Luka Modric, Josip will bring a winning mentality and is the perfect type of player for our system.

"He will be the player we look for to score goals and we're sure he will. Josip is a player with a lot to prove."
